Unfortunately, the more recently reformulated inks are not necessarily consistent in color with the versions reflected in these lovely reviews.

 

I very much regret not purchasing a bottle of Waterfront Dusk in its first version.  I loved the ink but balked at the shipping cost.  Now, Birmingham still makes Waterfront Dusk, but it isn't the same color.

Is there a current equivalent to the Cathedral of Learning Panther Blue? This was my favorite of the old series of Birmingham inks.

Rationalizing pen and ink purchases since 1967.

      My notes and advice on fountain pen cleaning

      Ah, but how to get it processed - that is the question. I believe that the last machine able to run K-14 (Kodachrome processing) ceased to operate some 15 or so years ago. Perhaps the film will be worth something as a curiosity in my estate sale when I die. 😺

      Take a lot of photos!   If the film has deteriorated or 'gone off' in any way, you can use that as a 'feature' to take 'arty' pictures - whether of landmarks, or people, or whatever.

      My long lost twin! I thought I was the only one still hoarding so much film in the freezer (since the early 2000s). But digital gear has come a long way since then, and I finally converted a while ago. I'm planning to reclaim the freezer space, but I have no idea what to do with the film.

      ...random aside - I still have some 30 rolls of unused, long-expired Kodachrome 64 film (35mm). They have been frozen since 2009. No idea why I have held on to them for this long, but I guess I'm hoping for a miracle. I too have never developed colour film but I still d&p my B&W to this day. As a passion, of course.

      Thanks for the info (I only used B&W film and learned to process that).   Boy -- the stuff I learn here!  Just continually astounded at the depth and breadth of knowledge in this community! Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
